This is more of a question to Jez our most awesome and supreme being of a moderator (!) but thought I’d put it as a post to see what anyone else thought.
In essence I find the font sizes (presumably set in the CSS file) on the forum too tiny!
On my other 17″ laptop it’s all fine and dandy, but then again it is a large screened laptop.
On the NC10 though, it seems a bit too tiny. Is there a possibility it could be increased by 0.5pt, 1pt or something just to make it that little bit bigger? Hopefully that wouldn’t alter or compromise the site’s layout either 🙂
Jez: If it does involve a major change then obviously don’t bother!
BTW. Cool poll feature – only using it here just to see what it’s like lol.
That’s funny, I was thinking the very same thing! And I have to agree with you. Given that this is a site for a netbook with a smaller screen I think I will have to act on it too!
Yep it is all handled via a CSS script so shouldn’t be too hard. I’ll need to experiment and see what breaks etc. The chap who made the theme might be able to help too! Watch this space.
PS Have you tried the browser zoom? It actually looks good in chrome zoomed in on my NC10. Need to check the widths and stuff on all the pages. But in the mean time that might help? A good excuse to test multitouch. Pinch and zoom lol!
Thanks Jez,
Yeah I have tried the zoom on IE 7 and it works ok but is a bit seems to render the text in weird ways, like putting a space after a “w” for example. Things start looking “w eird”!
Perhaps it’s better on Mozilla or Chrome?I’d hope that the font sizes wouldn’t affect the structure. If its a CSS layout as well then it should be fine since it’s all parameterised if that’s a word lol.
I like the font size on the aspireoneuser site forums, that’s a good compromise I’d say about size 10-11 pt perhaps – not too sure?!
EDIT: Just tried the zoom again, the W’s are ok now lol. It might have been on a different site I tried the zoom on before, yours renders fine 🙂
I think it is on the lower limit of what I consider fine for comfortable reading. Smaller and I would not be happy though.
The Zoom on Chrome was much better than on IE – I tried both!
I haven’t had a go at changing yet, its on the list of things to do Im working through lol!
Its nice, but i think the textarea in quick reply needs a little bigger font size and a larger field. Thats just a little too small.
I know that the new version of the e107 CMS will have a redesigned quick reply box with some whizzy AJAX functionality.
I’ll have a look though – I think it is a fair point! And, again, if it is easy then I’ll do it!
Thanks for the offer – a few web devs around. The e107 CMS is an OS project with a whole team of people working on it. So each time they release I get to use a load of new stuff 🙂
I think I have the forum pretty much they way I want it. Too much functionality will kill my host server anyway! Time to get some content together 🙂
Rest assured I will be calling on the NC10 owners web dev team if I need it – thanks 🙂
